Waiting on Wednesday: Boy Seeking Band by Steve Brezenoff

Boy Seeking Band by Steve Brezenoff. 384 p. Capstone Press, August 28, 2017. 9781496544629.Publisher synopsis: from the jacket. Not online yet. Terence Kato is a prodigy bass player, but he's determined to finish middle school on a high note. Life has other plans. In eighth grade, he's forced to transfer from a private arts school to a public school, where the kids seemingly speak a different language. Luckily, Terence knows a universal one: music. He sets out to build a rock band and, in the process, make a few friends.What a cool, edgy cover! I learned about this from the author's FB page last week.

About Me

Hi! I'm a school librarian at a 5 - 8th grade middle school in northern New Jersey. I read children's and YA literature nearly exclusively. It's that good. I try to read across ages and genres, so my blog has no "theme." I read and review fiction and non-fiction at all levels from picture books (one is never too old for picture books) up to young adult, including audiobooks. I can be reached at bkahnlovesbooks(at)gmail(dot)com regarding where to send submissions for review.
